HC, I guess you are the one most likely to know. Many years ago when 332's were known as Tigers, was there not one on approach to ABZ that had a double engine fail, they managed a relight and landed safely. I believe it was never really found out what the reason was but was most likely icing of the chip-pan which of course was long gone on landing. I know it cold in the far north but surely not that cold. Mind I remember snow in June on Shetland.
I was out of the country when it happened and the grape vine doesn't work as well as it might with distance.
Please forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm not trying to add fuel to the fire. I have great trust it any of the machines on the NS and feel the witch hunt is sad to see and poorly informed. I do understand their fear but I feel they are wrong but how one can get it across to them I don't know.
